I am going to Disney World!!!

nothing like coming into work on a Monday morning (blah) and having to sit through a department meeting (double blah)--only to have the boss say "I need one of you to be a speaker at a seminar in October --IN ORLANDO!" and guess who gets to go!! woohoo! two nights at the WDW Hilton on the firm! just enough time for a WDW fix and some PINS! so who will be around October 16-18? anyone???

no luck on stretching it out for the weekend. Saturday is Penn State Homecoming and Jeff and I will be heading to Happy Valley for some Nittany Lion football. Indeed--I imagine I will be sleeping the entire car ride that morning as my flight leaves Orlando friday night at 7pm and arrives back in Central PA at 11:30! I picked the last flight I could that night but unfortunately I will not be able to stay for the contemporary meet. Did I mention that Jeff doesnt want to come? so I am dragging my sister. she hasnt had a vacation without the kids (or her husband) in nine years! I am treating her to a little Disney. (I decided to dump those US Airways frequent flyer miles for her benefit before they are worthless! LOL!)
the other great part is--as far as my business obligations go--its a 45 minute speech at 11am on Thursday. thats it! gotta love it!

Actually Sharon.... I went to PITT!!! Jeff and his dad however are both big PSU fans (although neither of them ever went there) and Jeff and I have inherited 4 PSU season tickets from his dad who no longer wants them. My younger sister, two of my cousins, and both of my brother in laws are PSU alum (and a good number of my friends). I generally go for the fun and the tailgating and to socialize and only occassionally watch the games! LOL! (And I always cheer for Pitt when they play!)
